you write in the "washington post" obama ruse. it's not that different from what rubio's group is talking about. but republicans can slam obama's plan as some sort of kenyan socialist inspired abdication of sovereignty. >> that's a good one. will laugh at that a week. >> they can blast the provisions on boarder security as laughable. they can describe the absence of a real plan for reforming the legal immigration process as slapdash or unserious or whatever they want to call it. so if the president really wants immigration reform to pass one of the most helpful things he could do is put out his own plan as decoy to draw republican fire while the senate works on bipartisan consensus, which looks suspiciously like what just happened. >> i said when rubio went on fox and other shows,it was a kabuki dance. marco rubio's plan is a great plan, look what he's doing and ignored he's doing it at 95% of what the president is doing. i'm fine. whatever gets you through the night, awesome. but let us not pretend that one of these plans is much

obama. but i think those of us knew that national security could be a problem. and when he pointed the secretary of state for domestic reasons, and he appointed him retired marine general to be the national security adviser, he put leon panetta, and i don't use one of your neighbors in california, but he was captured by the operations mentality and the cia. this was an extremely weak national security team. obama was also ruled by the military. that's why you have the surge of forces. i think that he realizes that he was had by the military. and i think that that is very important. one of the reasons why i am more optimistic about the second term as i think that this is a wiser man in terms of foreign policy, and if you look at the fact that he has ended the war in iraq, he was meandering toward ending the war in afghanistan and allowing the pentagon and you have to remember when you're looking at the pentagon, you're looking at an institution that has the fine motor skills of a dinosaur. it
